Cheeseboy has created an all-in-one zip file for Windows. It includes git and mingw along with Windows dependencies. You can download it here:
Windows Zip Installer.exe (http://205.196.123.185/r94uz7dgi5mg/od18j361y6mpppo/ENIGMA+Zip+Installer.exe) (55MB)
The file is a self-extracting 7z. Once the file is extracted you click ENIGMA.exe inside the extracted folder to run ENIGMA/LGM. The first time it is run it will do an automatic git checkout, and patch in the dependencies before running LGM.
Many people have been complaining that the installation is too hard and hopefully this should go towards resolving this. It also gives users an easy way to update now without knowing git, this can be done by opening git-bash and typing: update. Developers should also be able to commit/push from this as well if they wish to use this set-up instead (I haven't tested this though). Another benefit is that it's now implemented correctly with a newer gcc so Windows Widgets are working again.
At this point we're looking for people to test it to make sure it is working correctly for everyone, then I will add it to the download page as an alternative to a standard git install.

Put it on the download page, you mook >:(

Theres no need to use wine. You can install mingw from your distrobutions package manager and cross compile to windows from linux by selecting the proper compiler in enigma settings. You do however need to apply the winpatch to your linux enigma but this will not harm anything. I might write a wiki entry on it later.

Ok I just managed a push from this set-up. But I had to change the origin url in \.git\config to: url = git@github.com:enigma-dev/enigma-dev.git
By the way the windows gcc.ey has just been removed from the main repo, and added to gitignore. Windows gcc.ey will now be included in the WinPatch.
So note to anybody committing please pull this before you go committing anything, or make sure you don't commit gcc.ey back into the repo.. there's a history of deleted files being committed back into the repo :p

Ok, I've managed to make an .exe for it now as well.
The console windows is now automatically hidden, and logs are piped into enigma_log (which you can find in the enigma-dev directory). Doing this speeds things up quite a lot and will also prevent the noober people being confused with the gabillion errors and warnings enigma enjoys printing.

I can confirm that this works, even on new GCC. I did have a problem that it froze on git checkout (I think it timed out), I then closed it and restarted, but I couldn't run ENIGMA anymore. It just said it can't find .jar. So I had to delete the folder and try again. Then it worked fine.

Hi there,
I'm trying enigma windows zip installer behind a proxy and it doesn't seems to download anything from Git.
